Tone Deaf
(Brecht)
Tone deaf! i can’t play an instrument
Tone deaf! i can’t even sing
Tone deaf! i have to wear ear plugs
The noise makes my ears ring
They told me when i ws eleven
"you shouldn’t even bother to try.
You’ve got no musical ability."
And they weren’t telling a lie
Tone deaf! i’ve got no rhythm
Tone deaf! i’ve got no pitch
Tone deaf! i couldn’t hit an octave
If it meant that i’d get rich
All i can do is shout
Louder and faster than most
That’s what i do for a living
Traveling coast to coast
Tone deaf! i don’t have good meter
Tone deaf! i dan’t sing tremolo
Tone deaf! i’ve got poor register
You won’t hear me sing falsetto
No, i can’t hit those high notes
And i can’t go real low
All in all, i’m tone deaf
And everyone tells me so
Tone deaf!
